Jessica

THE LATE NIGHT WALK.

CHAPTER FOURTEEN

JESSICA.

"You are crazy! for a guy I just met." Jessica says as she enters the bathroom.

"Okay, I will be wait for you outside." Anthony says as he takes his leave.

Anthony takes his outfit and wears it around the hallway, he is putting on an orange short, a plain tee and his white sneakers. His wristwatch complementing his looks.

He is with his zero limit black debit card. He walks out to the counter, not realising Ashley hasn't left yet.

"I thought you were taking Miss fake face out, so you plan to do that, in that? this? Well you are a cleaner after all. I wouldn't expect less." Ashley says as she nods her head.

Anthony smiles and ignores her. On his phone, Anthony scans for a five star restaurant to attend, at least to impress Jessica.

Anthony is aware of her and how she is, after all he has heard a lot from Eunice.

Jessica comes out in a rather surprising outfit. Flipping her hair, Anthony is stunned.

"Birds of the same feather do flock together don't they?" Ashley says as she mocks Jessica for her choice of outfits.

"Wow, you look stunning in whatever you wear." Anthony adds as he- as he smiles.

"we are wearing matching outfits, and who would have thought we are wearing your last year summer Line release." Anthony says in a cheery voice.

"Yeah, and that line sold out almost immediately, how did you get it?" Jessica asks Anthony as she is the one who was in charge of that line last year.

"well, it was a gift and when i realised its worth, I made sure to treasure it, i didn't know you brought it here with you." Anthony adds as he smiles and giggles inside, he just lied about being gifted, Anthony has always had a crush on Jessica since she came into limelight but who would he tell that too.

"Ashley! you need a life." Jessica says as they walk to her car. Her parents didn't take her car, they needed her to have something she could sell if she got tired of the new life she is living.

Ignoring Ashley who feels defeated.

"I should drive." Anthony suggests as he goes to the drivers side.

"And why? it is just a simple dinner and a walk isn't it?" Jessica asks

"we don't even need the car, we can take a uber, get to the restaurant eat and take a mini Walk, and car back here and if the doors are locked, we can rent out an hotel and spend the night, personally the bed is too small for me and i am being honest." Anthony explains as he cajoles Jessica.

"Alright anything for me to forget today." Jessica says as she closes her door.

placing it in her lilac mini bag, she and Anthony waits while the uber gets there.

scrolling through her pictures on her phone, she sees how many pictures she has of Eunice, the places they have been too and they fun they have had, fuming up she deletes them without blinking.

"Definitely the last time, i will be friends with a bitch." Jessica curses out in the uber.

"you good? it's not Ashley right." Anthony asks.

"Ashley is just one of those girls that got bullied in school she is exerting revenge through me, I could give her the heat but then she is a small fry, I could just shave off her head or make her get fired, I can burn her clothes or do something that would hurt her but why would i waste my time on her, she is small." Jessica says in a firm and scary tone, The driver gulps in fear, Anthony is just amused by her. "Let me guess this isn't your first time." Anthony asks as he smiles. "Of course not." She replies

The ride is filled with little conversations, Anthony is getting more interested.

A ten minutes montage of Anthony and Jessica talking is seen as the uber drives along.

Entering the DS restaurant that has been earlier rated a five star restaurant, the music playing is Broken inside by half masterpiece, a slow song about self realisation.

"Good evening, I made a reservation." Anthony says to the receptionist. "Under what name?" She asks him as she scans Jessica who she recognises her she can't place her hand on it.

"Anthony Flenzo" Anthony replies, the urge to hold her hands, is the but he can't.

After a few searches she finds the name.

"Yeah sure, it's right here, your table is table twenty." The receptionist says as she takes them to their table, the table is in a quiet space, more like in a conceded place, on a minimum level.

sitting opposite each other, Jessica asks and yes, her moved the sit for her to seat, Anthony is a gentleman.

In seconds, an order came in, he already ordered in the car.

"you don't know what I would like to eat." Jessica says as she knows she didnt tell him what she would like to eat.

"Yes but you seemed pretty upset so I decided to order so you eat and not get stressed, you had a pretty rough day." Anthony adds as he smiles bright, it is sweet and sexy kinda of smile.

"Thank you and I do love meatloaf it is my favourite." Jessica adds, Anthony had previously asked Eunice what Jessica favourite is.

"So what is Anthony flenzo doing in a city like this? I know you said unless we are friends but we are at a restaurant and we might as well, talk over dinner." Jessica says as she cuts through the meatloaf.

"You are smart type, having you around will have its benefits but you are right, I do have my reasons for being here, I am a flenzo after all." Anthony says in a calm tone.

**************

"And who are you?" Jessica asks the strange lady.

"I am Cynthia, Anthony's Ex." Cynthia replies

"So, I travel, I travel to Paris for who months and you are kissing this? this!" Cynthia, a lady in her late twenties, a fierce woman too, Jessica seems to have found her match. She is a blonde, very pretty but on a average, Cynthia is also a model, who aspires to work for Amor Corporations.

"Okay, that is not much of my concern and you guys can deal with that on your own." Jessica says as she takes her leave.
